225 - New Model Army[00:00:08]
She stares at the screen [00:00:17]
At the little words of green[00:00:19]
Tries to do remember what to do next[00:00:21]
There's a trace of frustration that crosses her face[00:00:26]
Searching for the key she should press[00:00:30]
And I would help her if I only knew how[00:00:34]
But these things are a mystery to me too[00:00:38]
And it seems that the Corporate eyes they are watching[00:00:42]
She fears for her job and the moments are passing[00:00:47]
I stare at her nametag and I think to myself[00:00:51]
Both you and I we never asked for any of this[00:00:56]
So let's take a walk up past the chemical works[00:01:07]
Where the sky turns green at night[00:01:12]
And we'll talk about getting away from here[00:01:17]
Some different kind of life[00:01:21]
But even in the freshest mountain air[00:01:27]
The jet fighters practise overhead[00:01:31]
And they're drilling these hills for uranium deposits[00:01:36]
And they'll bury the waste for our children to inherit[00:01:40]
And though this is all done for our own benefit [00:01:44]
I swear we never asked for any of this[00:01:49]
This golden age of communication[00:02:01]
Means everyone talks at the same time[00:02:05]
And liberty just means the freedom to exploit[00:02:10]
Any weakness that you can find[00:02:14]
Turn off the TV just for a while[00:02:19]
Let us whisper to each other instead[00:02:23]
And we'll hope that the Corporate ears do not listen[00:02:27]
Lest we find ourselves committing some kind of treason[00:02:31]
And filed in the tapes without rhyme without reason[00:02:36]
While they tell us that it's all for our own protection [00:02:40]
I swear we never asked for any of this[00:02:44]
I swear we never asked for any of this[00:02:53]
I swear we never asked for any of this[00:03:01]
I swear[00:03:10]
